This paper presents a general approach to predict the influence of geometric non-linearities on the free vibration of elastic, thin, orthotropic and non-uniform open cylindrical shells. The open shells are assumed to be freely simply supported along their curved edges and to have arbitrary straight

The Rayleigh-Ritz method is used, with simple polynomials as the admissible functions, to obtain an eigenvalue equation for the free vibration of thin, flat plates which involve curved boundaries defined by polynomial expressions. The approach is used to determine the natural frequencies of several
A method is presented for the determination of the dynamic characteristics of non circular cylindrical panels, based on Flu¨gge or Donnell type theories. The panels are simply supported along the curved edges, while at the straight edges they are supported by any type of admissible boundary conditio
